Chiropractic Care

We provide advanced spinal correction utilizing "state of the art" c­hiropractic techniques. Never in the history of chiropractic have we been able to provide the level of help and e­xpertise that now exists. These newer correction methods are even safer, more comfortable and more effective than ever before. As a Doctor of Chiropractic, Dr. Charles Laycock has years of training and experience in spinal adjustment.

Corrective Exercises­

We teach our patients special "blueprint" exercises designed just for them to help strengthen and correct their own unique problem. These exercises can be performed in the comfort of your own home and can improve the effectiveness of your spinal correction by as much as 30-40%. In addition to skeletal misalignment, muscles and connective tissues can be out of place or strained by improper alignment and use. Specific exercises and stretches can help your body stay in balance and in health.

Spinal Decompression

Our office is dedicated to offering the latest, state-of-the-art, conservative treatments for spinal conditions. Spinal Decompression is a safe, non-surgical, traction-based treatment for herniated or "bulging" discs in the neck and lower back. So many of our patients have already benefited from Spinal Decompression. If you have a herniated or degenerated disc, sciatica, spinal stenosis or a failed back surgery, Spinal Decompression can likely help you!

Lifestyle Advice

We often find it helpful to "coach" our patients on certain activities they should avoid or do differently to avoid aggravating their particular health challenge. Our goal is to help every patient achieve a fulfilling and happy lifestyle full of the activities they enjoy most. We recognize that each patient is a whole person, and to help them reach true health and wellness is a collaborate effort between our professionals and our patients.

Nutritional Assessment

We provide specific recommendations on nutritional supplements and healthy food choices to enhance our patient´s return to optimal health. Do you know which supplements and vitamins are good for you? Dr. Charles Laycock can provide a structured nutritional program based on your individual needs.

Spinal & Postural Screenings

Posture and spinal screenings can reveal important health information and unlock the door to improved health and well-being. We provide screenings at area malls, community events, health fairs and places of employment. Contact us today to arrange a screening at your event or workplace.

Massage Therapy

To complement and enhance your care, we also offer Massage Therapy with our skilled licensed Massage Therapist. Janis is skilled in a wide range of Massage techniques and can customize your massage to meet your specific needs for health and wellness. She accepts personal injury, on-the-job injuries as well as a number of private insurance companies.
